  • Here is the original video with music: • Tool-The Grudge Drum C...
    This is the drums-only version of Tool-The Grudge. I've had a few folks ask me to post this. As I mentioned in the description of the original video, learning this song was a great journey - there are so many subtleties and nuances that I never knew existed. It wasn't until I really peeled back the layers while learning it that I gained a true appreciation of Danny Carey's drum arrangement.

    One of the few bands that i can know the song everytime just by the drumming.

  • @Johnkewdrums
    @Johnkewdrums  Před 12 lety +29

    At 0:30 I played a series of 5 strokes repeatedly: r-l-r-l-l
    With the emphasis on one and two of every other measure.
    It becomes more complex at 0:42 with: flam tap-r-l-l-r-l-r-l-r (each measure). So you're essentially playing two double strokes with your left hand then a double stroke with your right hand that straddles the boundary of the measure.

    Hi there - thanks so much for this feedback. You read my mind - I'm thinking of doing more tutorial-focused videos for the next series.

      @@Cymanytb There's no "more impactful" here. The music has 4 components and taking one out hurts the song. Taking 3 completely kills it. If the drums were THAT huge, it wouldn't sound that empty, would it.

      @@darkySp But I agree, there is no the grudge if there are only drums. it's just 25% of the song. Also, here I agree that Johnkew has made the drums in his cover way mellower and softer than Danny's but that's just because he didn't have Danny's kit and sound. Now, tho if you check the last cover of invincible and drums only, you can notice how powerful the drums are there (still not as powerful as Danny's but close enough) :))

    Hey bud, good to hear from you. I like the drum mix on this one too - I'm finally getting a sound I like after more than a year of mixing drums. The funny thing is that each recording is a new challenge in mixing. It's not like you can copy your settings from a previous recording - they all sound different for whatever reason. Hope your weekend is a good one too, cheers.

    A few things... 1 - This song in particular highlights how drumming, in addition to leading, both sets and expands dynamic boundaries 2 - Well, done sir...a few slight timing inaccuracies but since you're clearly a better drummer than I am I should really just shut the hell up about it. 3 - during 8:09-8:13 your facial expression looks a lot like Garth drumming on 'Wayne's World'. 4 - Thanks for sharing this. It made my life a little better.

    It's good. You recited the song well and the drums sound nice.
    However, a lot of the time it seems like the consistency of your hits is being sacrificed by how hard your trying to play the drums. It looks like it's making you tense and is therefore ruining the fluidity of the patterns and particularly the faster parts like at 8.08. Just loosen up and use your wrists more and keep relaxed.
    Good video though!

If it works well for you, then (of course) continue this way, but it just looks really "unhealthy".

    First of all, thank you for this amazing cover! I listened to it over and over and it helped me a lot figuring out some parts of the song. I used your cover and another "bass only" cover I found on CZcams (czcams.com/video/KygcEnesn0M/video.html), put them together to have a Drum and Bass starting track on which I added the guitar. I'm not trying to make the promotion of my work here but since I don't know how to contact you directly, I'm using this comment space to ask if this is Ok with you (using your material in this way). The bass guy (Leo) already gave me his "Ok" to use his video for this and I'm writing to you to ask if that would be possible. Of course, I would give you all the credits for the drum track. I could send you the result of what I did if you want to hear it even if you are in another "league" than me (much better). Thanks in advance.
